AB  - Non-neuronal cells of glial origin play an essential
role in ALS onset and progression. Amer gaining
knowledge on the role of astrocytes in the disease
with particular reference to the inwardly rectifying
potassium channel Kir4.1 we aimed to examine the
functional properties of microglia and oligodendrocytes in the spinal cord of the ALS SOD1G93A rat
focusing on the expression and functional signilcance of Kir4.1.
Microglia in the ALS rat spinal cords showed
remarkable clustering in ventral horns, already in
presymptomatic animals. Colocalization of Kir4.1
and microglial Iba1 staining was 2-3 times more
abundant in presymptomatic as well as in symptomatic animals compared to individual cells. It was
also shown that these clusters bare a higher accumulation and colocalization of Kir4.1 and Iba1 with
mutated SOD1 compared to individual cells.
se spinal cord microglial cells were cultured and
patch-clamped using an innovative movable microscope stage to facilitate the gigaseal formation.
sese measurements demonstrated a decrease of
Ba2+-sensitive Kir currents.
se expression of Kir4.1 was markedly diminished in the dysmorphic ALS oligodendrocytes of
the degenerative phenotype. se cells isolated and
cultured from the SOD1G93A spinal cord showed
no change in processes ramilcation, but expressed
a lower level of Kir4.1. Whole-cell patch-clamp
recordings revealed compromised membrane
biophysical properties and diminished inward currents in ALS oligodendrocytes, with a particularly
decreased Ba2+-sensitive Kir current.
Altogether, our lndings provide the evidence
of a modiled Kir4.1 expression and function in
SOD1G93A glia with this channel’s particular abundance in clusters resembling ALS-specilc plaques.

AB  - The present study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective effects of the vitamin B complex (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, and B12-VBC), by studying the changes in the femoral nerve, quadriceps muscle, popliteal lymph nodes and gut microbiota in the rat model of multiple sclerosis, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). VBC treatment attenuated clinical signs of EAE during the disease, and reduced the duration of EAE thereby contributing to a faster recovery. In VBC-treated EAE rats, a significant decrease in nerve and muscle nuclear density was revealed during the onset period of the disease, while a marked increase was detected at the end of the disease, compared with untreated EAE rats. In the lymph nodes of VBC-treated EAE rats, a fewer number of lymphoid follicles in the cortical area and smaller epithelioid granulomas were detected. The changes in microbiota composition were examined using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and bioinformatics analysis, which revealed the potential of VBC treatment in establishing and/or maintaining gut microbiota homeostasis. Finally, the present study demonstrated that VBC treatment ameliorated the cellular changes in the affected peripheral nerve, muscles innervated by this nerve, and the gut microbiota dysbiosis which occurred during the EAE.

AB  - We describe an approach for studying the physiology of single live cells using the conceptionally novel upright microscope/patch-clamp configuration. Electrophysiology experiments typically require a microscope with the fixed stage position and the motion control of the microscope objective. Here, we demonstrate that a microscope with a z-axis movable stage and a fixed objective can also be efficiently used in combination with the patch-clamp technique. We define a set of underlying principles governing the operation of this microscope/patch-clamp configuration and demonstrate its performance in practice using cultured astrocytes, microglia, and oligodendrocytes. Experimental results show that our custom configuration provides stable recordings, has a high success rate of the whole-cell patch-clamp trials, can be effectively applied to study cellular physiology of glial cells, and provides comparable performance and usability to the commercially available systems. Our system can be easily replicated or adapted to suit the needs of the research groups and can be cost-effective in reducing the investments in purchasing additional equipment. We provide step-by-step instructions on implementing an upright microscope with z-axis movable stage as a routine workhorse for patch-clamping.

AB  - Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by death of motor neurons in the spinal cord and brain. Non-neuronal cells particularly of glial origin play an essential role in disease onset and progression. The aim of our study was to examine functional properties of two glial species of the spinal cord, oligodendrocytes and microglia in the ALS SOD1G93A rat with a particular focus on the expression and functional significance of the inwardly rectifying potassium channel Kir4.1 that is abundantly expressed in these glial cells. 
We demonstrate that the expression of Kir4.1 is markedly diminished in oligodendrocytes of the SOD1G93A rat. Moreover, our data show an elevated number of dysmorphic oligodendrocytes, indicative of a degenerative phenotype. To assess physiological properties of oligodendrocytes, we prepared cell cultures from the rat spinal cord. The cells isolated from the SOD1G93A spinal cord displayed similar processes ramification as the control, but expressed a lower level of Kir4.1. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings revealed compromised membrane biophysical properties and diminished inward currents in ALS oligodendrocytes, while the Ba2+-sensitive Kir current was decreased in ALS oligodendrocytes [1]. 
The microglia in the ALS rat spinal chords shows remarkable clustering in ventral horns, already starting in presymptomatic animals. Colocalization of Kir4.1 and microglial Iba1 staining was 2-3 times more abudant in presymptomatic as well as in symptomatic animals compared to individual cells. The morphology of micorglia also changes in ALS where the number and length of processes dicreases almost the same in pre- and symptomatic animals. It was also shown that these clusters bare a higher accumulation and colocalization with Kir4.1 and Iba1 of mutated SOD1 compared to individual cells. Similarly, the transmembrane marker of microglial fagocitosis, CD68 was also augmented in these clusters. 
The spinal chord micorglial cells were cultured and explored with patch-clamp electrophysiology by using an innovative movable microscope stage [2] to facilitate the gigaseal formation of the cell membrane and patch pipette. These measurements demonstrated a decrease of Kir Ba2+-sensitive currents.
Altogether, our findings provide the evidence of impaired Kir4.1 expression and function in SOD1G93A spinal cord oligodendrocytes and microglia with this channel’s particular abundance in clusters typical of ALS pathology and its progression.

AB  - Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease affecting lower
and upper motor neurons, leading to muscle atrophy, paralysis and death. Although
ALS is characterized by motoneuron degeneration, non-neuronal cells such as
oligodendrocytes play an essential role in disease onset and progression. The aim
of this study was to investigate functional properties of oligodendrocytes in the ALS
with particular focus on their role in the regulation of extracellular K+ through inwardly
rectifying potassium channel Kir4.1 abundantly expressed in these glial cells. We
employed immunolabeling of Kir4.1, and oligodendrocyte-specific marker CNPase,
to examine the expression of Kir4.1 in oligodendrocytes of the lumbar spinal cord of
SOD1G93A rat model of ALS. Furthermore, whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were
performed on primary oligodendrocyte cultures from ALS and control rats to
investigate functional properties of these cells. Our data show reduced expression
of Kir4.1 in the oligodendrocytes in the lumbar spinal cord of SOD1G93A rat compared
to control. Moreover, we found elevated number of dysmorphic oligodendrocytes in
the ALS spinal cord, indicative of a degenerative phenotype. Oligodendrocytes
isolated from SOD1G93A spinal cord display similar processes ramification as the
control, however expressing a lower level of Kir4.1. Electrophysiological examination
of cultured SOD1G93A oligodendrocytes revealed compromised membrane
properties and diminished inward currents in comparison to control. In addition, the
Ba2+-sensitive Kir current is decreased in ALS oligodendrocytes. Altogether, our
findings provide the evidence of impaired Kir4.1 expression and function in
SOD1G93A spinal cord oligodendrocytes suggesting a critical role of oligodendrocyte
Kir4.1 channel in ALS pathophysiology.

AB  - In the hypothalamus, insulin takes on many roles involved in energy homoeostasis. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine hypothalamic insulin expression during the initial phase of the metabolic response to fasting. Hypothalamic insulin content was assessed by both radioimmunoassay and Western blot. The relative expression of insulin mRNA was examined by qPCR. Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry were used to determine the distribution of insulin immunopositivity in the hypothalamus. After 6-h fasting, both glucose and insulin levels were decreased in serum but not in the cerebrospinal fluid. Our study showed for the first time that, while the concentration of circulating glucose and insulin decreased, both insulin mRNA expression and insulin content in the hypothalamic parenchyma were increased after short-term fasting. Increased insulin immunopositivity was detected specifically in the neurons of the hypothalamic periventricular nucleus and in the ependymal cells of fasting animals. These novel findings point to the complexity of mechanisms regulating insulin expression in the CNS in general and in the hypothalamus in particular.
